Welcome to NYMC's homepage!
Mission of P.E.O.P.L.E. in Medicine (People of Every Orientation Protecting Liberty & Equality in Medicine):
As a New York Medical College student organization, we actively work to improve the health care delivery to lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) patient populations through outreach activities, volunteering opportunities, and addressing health issues and concerns within the LGBT community. Our organization communicates and collaborates with other health professionals by creating a positive, safe, and proactive environment for patients in which the highest quality of care can be delivered, and a safe, supportive atmosphere in which our fellow students can foster their personal and professional growth. We educate both current and future physicians on the special healthcare needs of LGBT patients through conferences, discussions, and focused educational experiences, to create competent and compassionate physicians.
